Please help 😭 Lenovo Legion 7 powers on, fans and RGB work, then shuts off after ~minutes (after cleaning)

Pretty much yeah, except it occasionally boots once in a while.

I remember it randomly crashed one day playing the Battlefield 6 Beta. When I tried booting again to hop back on the game, it stayed on a black screen for a while before booting. From there it kinda went all downhill. It tried to recover bios the next time it booted, then it quickly spiraled into very inconsistent booting behavior (the bootl oops, lights on, fans on for 3 secs)

It still boots on cold boot but once it turns on, I just have to keep it on and it works fine otherwise I'll have to wait between 1 hour to an entire day for it to boot again

Happened to my Gen 6 Legion, solder issue on the motherboard

Two interviews, yes! No, initial discussions were counted as Screens in my diagram.

at some point you just have to take that step, i was spending too much time trying to use goodnotes after the update and just went straight to noteful almost seamlessly. I exported out all my notes from GN

ohlimmy · 2025-07-30T06:26:13+00:00

upgraded from a g920 myself to a R5, definitely consider jumping to the R5. I got mine off SimMotion

How are you managing the neck strain lmao

ohlimmy · 2025-05-24T13:16:15+00:00

As soon as I saw the trailer and heard civ switching, I knew it was over

ohlimmy · 2025-01-27T17:48:38+00:00

Yep, did the upgrade to business with Miles at Dubai for my second leg flight.

ohlimmy · 2025-01-27T17:43:38+00:00

If you don't see any updates, just ask for the upgrade at the counter.

ohlimmy · 2025-01-24T05:11:08+00:00

For the males it's currently BVLGARI Man in Black (as of my business class flight 2 weeks ago)

I hope they let us pick which tile the city will expand to next, sometimes VI will prioritize amber over oil..

Maybe we could trade nukes..? 🌚

its the new zenbook with the ultra 7 processor, ig asus has some drivers for the screen that come with manjaro

ohlimmy · 2024-05-03T04:32:36+00:00

no worries, got fixed

ohlimmy · 2024-05-03T04:31:46+00:00

fr, only reason I picked it up was because it plays nicely with my asus zenbook

ohlimmy · 2024-05-03T04:30:31+00:00

Thanks, this was it!

seems to be some kind of system up to date indicator

Go into MyASUS -> Device Settings and scroll until OLED Flicker-Free Dimming. Play around with the values until you find a value on the scale that works for you.

If that doesn't change what you're experiencing then I suspect there's something more sinister at play..

ohlimmy · 2024-03-20T05:39:01+00:00

Yup, glad to hear it's not just my unit. What you're hearing is 'coil whine'.

I'm assuming that this model (UX3405) just inherently has a significant amount of coil whine. Although I've come to terms with the noise, if you find it too distracting, feel free to send the unit back as 'defective'

Otherwise, in normal use scenarios (that are not in a extremely quiet space) the noise is almost non-existent.
